Al-Furqan 25:66

<h2>Attributes of the Servants of the Most Gracious</h2><p>These are the attributes of the believing servants of Allah,</p><p>الَّذِينَ يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الاٌّرْضِ هَوْناً</p><p>(those who walk on the earth Hawna,) meaning that they walk with dignity and humility, not with arrogance and pride. This is like the Ayah:</p><p>وَلاَ تَمْشِ فِى الاٌّرْضِ مَرَحًا</p><p>(And walk not on the earth with conceit and arrogance...) (17:37).

This does not mean that they should walk like sick people, making a show of their humility, for the leader of the sons of Adam (the Prophet) used to walk as if he was coming downhill, and as if the earth were folded up beneath him.

Come calmly and with tranquility, and whatever you catch up with, pray, and whatever you miss, make it up.)</p><p>وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ الجَـهِلُونَ قَالُواْ سَلاَماً</p><p>(and when the foolish address them they say: "Salama.") If the ignorant people insult them with bad …

Lo! it is wretched as abode and station;

"Evil indeed is it as an abode, and as a place to rest in";

Evil indeed it (Hell) is as an abode and as a place to dwell.

It is indeed a miserable residence and destination.”
